www.ew.com/gallery/the-son-amc-first-look/2740008_welcome-sonWelcome to The Son Pierce Brosnan stars in AMC's new series, The Son, which is set to premiere in 2017, and we've got an exclusive first look at the former 007 and his castmates right here. The multi-generational epic tells of the rise and fall of a Texas family and is based on Philipp Meyer's acclaimed novel of the same name, which was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for fiction. See the photos, ahead. Image Credit: Van Redin/AMC The Family Brosnan plays the charismatic patriarch Eli McCullough, father to Pete (Henry Garrett, Poldark) and grandfather to Jeannie (Tony nominee Sydney Lucas, Fun Home). Eli was born on the day Texas became an independent Republic — he's oft called the "First Son of Texas" — and is "uneasy with the inexorable taming of Texas and the uncertain future of his legacy." Meanwhile, Pete is described as struggling to "make his impossible father proud while forging his own identity." Grandfather-Daughter Bonding Pete's daughter Jeannie, on the other hand, is a "strong-willed tomboy" who "rejects her fate of existing solely to marry well and bear children." The Backstory As a young boy, Eli was kidnapped and raised among the Comanche Native American tribe. Toshaway, played by Zahn McClaron (Fargo), is the war chief who serves as a father figure for Eli. Another V.I.P. Father Carlos Bardem, older brother to Javier Bardem, plays Pedro Garcia. Slide 6 of 6 The McCullough Clan Continues Jess Weixler (The Good Wife) also stars as Sally McCullough, and David Wilson Barnes (Hell on Wheels) plays Phineas McCullough.

tbivision.com/show-of-the-week/2016/09/show-week-son/649402/Pierce Brosnan’s return to television comes in the shape of AMC period piece The Son, which is the cable network’s attempt to tell the story of the birth of the US state of Texas. The former James Bond plays Eli, the patriarch of the McCullough family, who was born on the day Texas was declared an independent republic and thusly the nickname ‘The First Son of Texas’. “This is a multi-generational family story about the birth of Texas,” says Jenna Santoianni, executive VP of television series at producer and distributor Sonar Entertainment. “It’s about love and family, and how this can be taken away from you, and it’s about how empires are built.” Eli’s story is one of tragedy, success and family, and is based on a Pulitzer-nominated book by Philipp Meyer, who adapted the book for television with Kevin Murphy as show runner, plus Lee Shipman and Brian McGreevey, with the financial backing of Sonar, which packaged the series and sold it to AMC. Eli looks back at his life through his brutal worldview, which is informed by his childhood, during which he was kidnapped and raised by ruthless Comanche Native Americans after his white family are slaughtered. Years later, after rejoining the white world, McCullough uses force to take over oil field and cattle ranches, and builds a empire. The means used to create his fortune, however, lock the McCullough family into an unending cycle of violence and conflict. “The story is Pierce looking at three generations of his family and his legacy,” says Santoianni. “How does a man raised in an incredibly strange place become who he is today?” Henry Garrett, Zahn McClarnon, Paola Nunez and Sydney Lucas co-star, but the draw is Brosnan in his first TV series starring role since NBC adventure drama Remington Steele, which ran between 1982 and 1987. He had replaced Sam O’Neill, who left for personal reasons. “Pierce Brosnan is a great number one on the call sheet,” says Santoianni. “We were incredibly fortunate to get him to step in.” The show: The Son The producer: Sonar Entertainment, AMC Studios The distributor: Sonar Entertainment The broadcaster: AMC (US) The concept: Multi-generational drama starring Pierce Brosnan as a brutal Texas prospector looking back at his storied life
